  • Jinn and Juice

    Jinn and Juice by Nicole Peeler

    Jinn and Juice by Nicole Peeler is $1.99! This is book in an urban fantasy series that Sarah mentioned in a previous Hide Your Wallet. I am obsessed with this cover and all of the purples. Any fans of this series in the Bitchery?

    Cursed to be a jinni for a thousand years, Leila nears the end of her servitude—only to be bound once again against her will. Will she risk all to be human?

    Born in ancient Persia, Leila turned to her house Jinni, Kouros, for help escaping an arranged marriage. Kouros did make it impossible for her to marry—by cursing Leila to live a thousand years as a Jinni herself.

    If she can remain unBound, Leila’s curse will soon be over. But Ozan Sawyer, a Magi with the ability to See, Call, and Bind jinn has other plans.
    Oz needs Leila to help him penetrate Pittsburgh’s steel-soaked magic, a juice potent but poisonous to supernatural creatures, in order to find a missing girl with her own mysterious connection to Kouros. Unfortunately for Leila, becoming Bound to Oz may risk more than just her chance to be human once more—it could risk her very soul…

  • The Smoke Hunter

    The Smoke Hunter by Jacquelyn Benson

    The Smoke Hunter by Jacquelyn Benson is $1.99! Benson was on a recnet-ish podcast and I immediately put this on hold at my library. It sounds like a lot of fun. Have any of you read this one? I’ll be sure to report back after I’ve finished it.

    THE DEBUT OF A CAPTIVATING VOICE AND RIVETING STORYTELLER!

    Frustrated suffragette and would-be archaeologist Ellie Mallory stumbles across a map to a city that shouldn’t exist, a jungle metropolis alive and flourishing centuries after the Mayan civilization mysteriously collapsed. Discovering it would make her career, but Ellie isn’t the only one after the prize. A disgraced professor and his ruthless handler are hot on her heels, willing to go any extreme to acquire the map for themselves.

    To race them through the uncharted jungle, Ellie needs a guide. The only one with the expertise is maverick surveyor Adam Bates. But with his determination to nose his way into Ellie’s many secrets, Bates is a dangerous partner.

    As Ellie gets closer to her goal, she realizes it’s not just her ambitions at stake. A powerful secret lies hidden in the heart of the city – and if it falls into the wrong hands, it could shake the very fate of the world.

  • I’ll Be the One

    I’ll Be the One by Lyla Lee

    I’ll Be the One by Lyla Lee is $2.99! This is a contemporary YA novel with romantic elements. The heroine is part of a K-Pop idol competition and knows she doesn’t fit the image of a typical K-Pop star. She also starts crushing on one of her fellow competitors.

    Skye Shin has heard it all. Fat girls shouldn’t dance. Wear bright colors. Shouldn’t call attention to themselves. But Skye dreams of joining the glittering world of K-Pop, and to do that, she’s about to break all the rules that society, the media, and even her own mother, have set for girls like her.

    She’ll challenge thousands of other performers in an internationally televised competition looking for the next K-pop star, and she’ll do it better than anyone else.
    When Skye nails her audition, she’s immediately swept into a whirlwind of countless practices, shocking performances, and the drama that comes with reality TV. What she doesn’t count on are the highly fat-phobic beauty standards of the Korean pop entertainment industry, her sudden media fame and scrutiny, or the sparks that soon fly with her fellow competitor, Henry Cho.

    But Skye has her sights on becoming the world’s first plus-sized K-pop star, and that means winning the competition—without losing herself.

  • Part Time Cowboy

    Part Time Cowboy by Maisey Yates

    Part Time Cowboy by Maisey Yates is $1.99! This is a small town romance with a trouble making heroine who returns to her hometown. For some readers, parts of the conflict felt unnecessary, but I also know that Yates comes highly recommended if you’re in the mood for fun and steamy romances.

    A onetime bad girl comes home to small-town Oregon in the first in a sexy, heartfelt new series from USA TODAY bestselling author Maisey Yates

    Sadie Miller isn’t expecting any welcome-home parades on her return to Copper Ridge. Least of all from part-time rancher, full-time lawman Eli Garrett. The straitlaced, impossibly hot deputy sheriff glares at her as if she’s the same teenage hoodlum who fled town ten years ago. But running from her demons has brought Sadie full circle, ready to make a commitment at last. Not to a man, but to a bed-and-breakfast. On Garrett land. Okay, so her plan has a tiny flaw…

    Eli works too hard to let a blonde ball of trouble mess up his town. But keeping an eye on Sadie makes it tough to keep his hands off her. And if she’s so wrong for him, why does being with her feel so right?

    I’ll Be the One is ADORABLE. I loved it. I have mixed feelings about Yates, but this is a pretty good book of hers.

    Also wow, that cover for Jinn and Juice.

  2. Darlynne says:

    One of the Kindle Daily Deals is Midlife Fairy Hunter: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel (The Forty Proof Series Book 2). It is, apparently, “#1 in Women’s Divorce Fiction”. Is this a thing? Divorce Fiction? I had no idea and it seems oddly specific. But, see, it’s a good day when I wake up and immediately learn something new that does not involve the end of the world as we know it.

    I’ve read Nicole Peeler’s other series, will be interested to hear what you think of this one, Amanda. A Pittsburgh setting always makes me think of Wen Spencer’s fabulous Tinker series.

  3. MaryK says:

    DIRTY SECRET by Mira Lyn Kelly is currently free at Amazon. I liked that one a lot.

  4. Susanna says:

    Lisa Kleypas’ Devil in Spring is $3.99. (I think an Amazon Daily Deal.)

  5. Carol V says:

    A look at the Kindle Countdown deals shows some good stuff. E.g., Lynsay Sands’ newest Highland Brides 1.99; Cat Sebastion, The Soldier’s Scoundrel, 1.99; some number of Hannah Howell’s Wherlocke series, 1.99. It’s been a while, but I am about to reread these; I vaguely recall some editing issues in the face of which I’m normally out of there, but these magic people are so much fun. Also, Shelly Laurenston, The Beast in Him, 1.99 — rereading this series earlier this year may have saved my life, or at least my sanity, such as it is. Anyway, a couple of G. A. Aikens, Mary Jo Putney, the first five books in the Lost Lords series, you get the idea.

  6. Merle says:

    Tried to read Jinn and Juice, but quit when I realized the author was trying to justify enslaving the heroine. People who enslave others are never the hero, there is No Reason good enough to justify enslaving someone.

  7. Emma says:

    If anyone would like a little context on fatphobia in K-pop (or, well, K-entertainment, if I may coin that phrase), all you have to do is look up Shindong. He’s one of the members of Super Junior, been doing his thing for over a decade, but unfortunately is known as the “fat” one in the group. He has a strong fanbase now, but he was basically only allowed to debut because he was the best dancer, has great comedy skills, and plays into the “warm, gentle, chubby teddy bear” trope. As far as I know, there are still no other comparably famous plus-size male K-pop stars.

    Let’s not even talk about the standards for women.

  8. Bianca says:

    I think Nicole Peeler may want to research orientalism, cultural appropriation, and ignorantly pushing stereotypes
